  • Out of sight out of mind.

    That’s my problem. Three screen setup. I have three browser instances open.

    Instance 1: YouTube. (Left screen) Instance 2: Gaming wiki’s and info for the game I’m currently playing. (Right screen) Instance 3. Online courses and study materials. (Right screen. I swap between instance 2 and 3 based on what in currently doing on my main monitor).

    I’ll constantly delay or forget to study just because it’s not the currently opened in the foreground.




  • Personally, I don’t really bother with keeping up with things like upcoming releases, reviews, teasers and trailers.

    Not only to avoid the hype but also because there have been a couple of occasions when watching a single review or trailer on YouTube led to me getting a recommended video of the game during the release week, and that video had a massive spoiler in its title.

    I prefer to go into it completely blind. Maybe I just have incredibly low standards though. Some of my favourite games are those which were widely hated.

    Although after spending 10+ years on Reddit (which I’ve since quit using). Even the dedicated game subs are full of bitching and constant arguments, and God help you if you’re a fan of MMORPG’s cause that sub seems to absolutely despise them.
